I'm a native Houstonian, an Aggie graduate and a foodie!  Being raised in a chef family, around food businesses throughout, prepping and serving events in my early years, I found myself knowing more about the food industry than I ever expected to know.  In fact, my food service experience on my resume, that of office management and/or actual working large food events- surprisingly - raised more of an eye at interviews than other experiences listed.  Fast forward - through market crashes and up/downs of the oil industry, I decided to step BACK into the industry that anyone living and breathing can not do without...FOOD!

I first assisted (and still do) in my family's current food service business Kitchen 205, when I realized we had a gem in the making!  Our business chef of 13 years, originally from El Salvador, would prepare Pupusas for our family special occasions.  For years, all those attending the festivities, could not wait till the next Pupusa event!  Sitting in the middle of a great opportunity to share this Salvadoran delicacy with Houston, the diamond in the rough was ready to be polished and THE PUPUSA BAR was born!
